But despite its massive success, it’s Colombians J Balvin and Shakira who lead the pack at the 2018 awards show.

Competing in multiple categories, the top finalists include J Balvin (12), Shakira (12), Luis Fonsi (10), Daddy Yankee (10), Maluma (10), Ozuna (10), Justin Bieber (8) and Beyoncé (7). In case you’re living under a rock, both the Biebs and Queen Bey sang in Spanish in two different popular remixes: Despacito and Mi Gente.

It’s important to mention that unlike other music awards show, the Latin Billboards are the only ones to honor the most popular albums, songs and performers in Latin music, as determined by the actual sales, streaming, radio airplay and social data that informs Billboard’s weekly charts during a one-year period from the rankings dated February 4, 2017 through this year’s January 27 charts.
